2001 Seat Ibiza review from UK and Ireland
"It has potential to be great, but lets itself down on silly issues"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The electric fault light seems to be constantly up.
The central locking keeps failing.
The accelerator fault light came up.
Clutch is very bad. Been fixed a few times now.
Radio seems to come on, on its own, even when I am not in the car. This drains the battery.
The light that says you are short on fuel was coming on way too early.
General comments?
This seems to be a good car, with some little problems that can never seem to be fixed.
I have brought it back to my dealer 6 times in 7 months, and still all original problems have not been fixed.
